I have read many times now that
"over config" is fine, on the condition it does not break or interfere
with anything else. But, what about under-config, speaking with a view that
one
command fits all. Let me try and explain with another question.
When
redistributing from one protocol to another, we can "tag" (for
want of a better word) the metric onto the end of redistribute <protocol>
command, or use the default-metric command within the receiving protocol.
So my second question is, what are the rules; if any that govern what is
preferred over the other? Both will yield the same result technically from
what
I see. Of course the latter will set the "default" for all protocols
coming in - hence, under config? But, other than that are there any reasons to
pick
the former?
We
are marked, one assumes by a script for
the most part, but how tolerant is it when it comes to choices like this?
Without giving too much away, something I saw on the Cisco Assesor lab that
made me quetion this. Anyone
care to opine?
